Here are a few pictures of my 2000 V70, only had this since April and already had to change the ETM, but there have been some cosmetic changes along the way.

Projector headlights/ clear indicators and black grill

Rear Style light kit in black

17" Thor Alloys (great fun in carparks as the available lock is horrible!

Other alterations have been to the inside of the car with different stereo, Bluetooth kit, GPS Nav etc, I guess most of you chaps will be thinking the steering wheels been fitted on the wrong side of the car! - Mike
